Never done a pitstop before, better try them out

Yes, practice your pit stops. You can only do them online, in a race session. Use the practice server, kicked over to a race session. Once you stop in your pit box, a menu screen comes up. Choose what you want to do then click the tick button.

Tried this yesterday and failed, thought it was defaulting me the same fuel I put in at the start, but no, then I ran out of fuel. :o

Yeah, you have to tell it how much fuel you want.

That bold bit is good to know. I was never quite sure of that. Where did you get that info from? Also, I'd like to know how to get back to the default TC level.
With lots of clicking.  :)
Every car has the default set to a different value to make it interesting.
But you just start cycling through 1,2,3,1,2,3. I don't think you can get back to default.

You are correct, but you're not correct.  :)
Default is a value.  If you figure out which one it was (by feeling - I don't think there's another way) then you can get back to it by cycling.   
It's painful as hell.

Altho if it's only 3 settings it'll be fairly easy.  When it's 12 settings, it's somewhat trickier :D

I think the default is sometimes something like 1.27 though? At least that's what ptracker says. If I want to go back to default I quit and re-enter just to be sure.

Wally please put in a reserve for me. I slipped a disc yesterday and may be out for a few weeks.

I'd be surprised. 
But it can be any value.  It's not necessarily the middle value.  You can find it by feel, but it takes a bit of trying.
